Bowden offers an opportunity to be part of a project setting new standards in urban revitalisation in Adelaide and the rest of the world.

The first release of land was made available to teams of developers/builders and designers to design and build residential dwellings comprising 3 storey apartments and 3 storey townhouses, from Monday, 26 March 2012. Prospective purchasers of development parcels have submitted an offer in response to an invitation issued by the Government of South Australia. Offers will now be evaluated by the Government of South Australia with assistance from an expert Design Review Panel, and if acceptable, a land sale contract will be issued. To achieve the desired standards, the sale offer evaluation process will focus on:

  • Design credentials of the purchasing team with emphasis on design capability and experience.
  • Organisational and financial capability.
  • Commercial offer.

Contract conditions will require the selected purchaser to submit a detailed development proposal in order to obtain approval against the Urban Design Guidelines from the Government of South Australia prior to the purchaser seeking statutory approvals and commencing development.
